The Start of My Eiffel Tower

I admit it. I was very overwhelmed when I took this puzzle out of it's package and looked at all of the little pieces staring up at me. But once I took a minute to just look at it, I realized how easy it was to put together. Plus my oldest helped a bit as well. I think her little ADHD brain makes it easier for her to figure out puzzles. I kid you not. I think announcing it on my blog that I was going to achieve this task forced me to stay with it as well.

The first thing I did was to semi put each section together. Once I figured out each sections placement, I glued the section itself together. Next, I glued all of the sections together attaching other small pieces that had a necessary placement in attaching the sections together. Gee, did that make any sense?




So, here is the finished and securely glued Eiffel tower, ready for silver spray paint.

No, this picture is not upside down. It was taken to show you just how secure it is.

Despite the occasional breeze, this was really easy to spray paint. It only took one good coat.

So, now we are ready to add some silver glass glitter. I can't wait to see the finished product and display it in my studio. And of course, I will share that moment with you as well. Have a great day!
